Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

The leftovers were indeed terrible however.

But leftover (already dressed) salad is always terrible. Salads on pizza can be tasty but you kinda have to eat all of the salad at the time.

Now I am hungry and don't really have a lot of choices.

I want pizza in my past. Thinking about it tonight was all fond memories, but real pizza in real now? Dread.

I still have an iron stomach when it comes to food poisoning. But certain food combos, I will pay for. Pizza is one of them.

Long live spinach and blueberry salads and carrots and nummy hummus and (moderate) awesome cheeses! I'll give up pizza for the taste explosion of argentinean empanadas, the amazingness of fruits and vegs from the local fields and the Dizz burger with sweet potato fries. And that ridiculous grilled portabello and onion sandwich with feta, spinach and garlic aioli on a rosemary ciabatta. I dream about that sandwich now.

We don't do a lot of pizza, though we had an amazing white sauce garlic and chicken pizza in Boise. Lately, I've been doing flatbreads with avocado on it. Then I bake it with whatever else I can think of (spinach, pea sprouts, already grilled chicken, a poached egg). It's so satisfying and yet not as heavy as pizza.

We make a lot of pizza, usually pesto and usually made from TJs whole wheat pizza dough.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

My sister is GROWING her hair. Now people might be able to tell us apart. I'm going shorter, she's aiming at afro puffs. RIDIC. I think my mother might have gotten through to her--she's worried we cut our hair so short because we are embarrassed of it and don't like our nappy kinky hair.

I wouldn't even know what hairstyle to aim at that would be better than this or bald! If you guys could give me hair, what hairstyle would you recommend as an improvement. Chemical alteration to texture or curl of the follicles on any permanent level is out of the picture. I've done those, and I could come out looking like Iman and it wouldn't be worth it for me. Dye is the most I can tolerate, and I don't love it.

So.

Do me.

I had to go look up afro puffs. How long does it take to grow out your hair that long? That seems pretty long to me. As for advice, I don't know that there's any style that would look *better* than your short cut, just other styles that would also look good. Like short dreads or braids always look nice, or an afro. But I can't picture you with long hair AT ALL. Isn't that odd?

I barely picture ita ! not blonde.

Despite the evidence and actual facts.

I think short twists can be a really cute look, although I don't know that I'd say it's better than ita's current style. I had a colleague whose hair was (naturally) a texture that made adorable little curls that looked like twists even when very short, and I just loved it.

I say buy a variety of wigs and try a bunch out.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I don't know what to do with my own hair, much less ita's.
